WHERE TO EVEN BEGIN. So we’re going to begin to lose a full-scale underfunded, undermanned War on Yemen very soon. Probably around Martin Luther King Day; that should provide enough time to load the RV. But this is going to happen. This is America, remember? Of 9/11 fame? And a hilarious “War on Yemen” sounds just stupid enough for our government to do it. And Josephine Lieberman shall leadeth.
Whoa hey jesus criminy:
“Somebody in our government said to me in Sana’a, the capital of Yemen, Iraq was yesterday’s war. Afghanistan is today’s war. If we don’t act preemptively, Yemen will be tomorrow’s war. That’s the danger we face.”
And we all know that the best way to “act preemptively” to avoid a war is to… have a preemptive war! It’s like a “regular war” but with much more FUCK YEAH and much less FIRM LEGAL GROUNDING.

I see that Joe is not happy just blowing up health care reform. Why does his opinion matter–on anything–again? Or is he just speaking for his war-crazed BFF Walnuts?
Fuck that frog-faced goon.
I nominate Joe for a black-ops mission into Yemen, STAT. Go defend your country, Droopy Dog.
I thought Paul Krugman ordered Lieberman’s death already. Why is he still alive? Isn’t anybody paying attention to Paul Krugman??
How does Billy Kristol feel about this? That’s the impotent question.
Why can’t Ol’ Droopy just say what he really thinks: “Let’s just nuke all the camel jockeys!”
Can air drop Lieberman into Yemen. He’s a one man army of dick.
Aren’t we supposed to war with Iran next? Maybe we should just nuke the whole middle east.
GOP.com poll:
Should the U.S. invade Yemen?
1) Absolutely! Thar’s muslins thar.
2) Why not? One more excuse to shout “FREEDOM” and “USA” over and over again
3) Where’s Yemen?
4) No. We should deploy our talking points to Afghanistan where they can do the most good.
Why does JoeMentum want to wage war on instant Asian-flavored noodles?
Oh, please — a pre-emptive attack on Yemen would just be a distraction from our pre-emptive attack on Iran.
Which, to my count, would bring the number of wars up to 5.5:
Iraq
Afghanistan
Pakistan (.5)
Iran (.5)
Colombia (.5)
Venezuela (.5)
Mexico (.5), and now
Yemen
It has come to my attention that there are some countries on the globe who feel no particular compulsion to get involved in multiple concurrent wars (e.g., New Zealand, Luxembourg, Jamaica). Perhaps we should urge our elected representatives to follow their non-confrontational examples.
Guantanamo is really horrible for America’s image in the world, but gee look, it’s REALLY REALLY NICE now guys, I mean…tropical breezes, it’s practically a Sandals resort! So, let’s send the world brochures about how nice it is, and then they won’t want it closed anymore, for reals guys! And privacy concerns, don’t make me laugh! We’re in a neverending war on terror here, and privacy is soooooo 9/10.
[re=485536]Advocatus_Diaboli[/re]: I see what you did there.
[re=485536]Advocatus_Diaboli[/re]: “Invading Yemen would be a good (or bad) thing.”
Today, we are all vicarious dick-swingers.
at this point in our nation’s looming catastrophic bankruptcy and impending balkanistic collapse, one war more or less hardly seems to matter. let’s all go eat cake and watch reality television.
Jim,
Point of clarification…did you mean “loose a full-scale underfunded and under manned war” or “lose a full-scale… etc. war”? Correct either way.
All we have to do is invade any country where a person who has tried to attack us is from and we’ll be able to secure the entire land and stop anyone from plotting in a room anywhere in the borders. Also, no thinking about the terrorists that creates and the costs to our country.
[re=485543]bureaucrap[/re]: You forgot Christmas.
The military is not going to like this one at all. First, they had to scour the ranks for the very limited supply of (non-queer) Arabic and Kurdish speakers. Then, they had to dig even deeper for the rarer still speakers of Urdu and Dari.
If we go after Yemen, how in the world will they find enough people fluent in Pirate to support the mission?!
Too late, we’re already at war there, and in the Philippines, Pakistan, Somalia, and lots of other places they’ll eventually get around to telling us about. It’s just a question of escalation of the current war effort in those particular locations, unless Hopey’s got some really good cards up his sleeve, which I unfortunately doubt, we’re so fucked. No one ever wins global wack-a-mole, ask the British.
If the latest bomber was living in London, why aren’t we attacking the UK? We could make a nice profit from selling the Elgin Marbles and the Rosetta Stone back to their previous owners.
We can make it a New Year’s Resolution, do something about all those brown folks, bring about some sort of solution that provides a sense of finality. It could work and it would be freeing.
I don’t understand how anyone can take this talking penis-face seriously. Surely the novelty of a talking penis in a suit must have worn off by now? It’s not as though it has any good ideas.
Somebody got Yemen on Joe’s blue dress.
If Yemen is tomorrow’s war, which war will be Saturday’s? I’m supposed to host a small party that day, but I can move it to a more convenient war day.
[re=485550]Ducksworthy[/re]: Your talkin like a muslin, you looser. Claryficashuns are for morans, also.
[re=485533]blinky_twinkie[/re]: Well, in all honesty, Krugman only advocated burning in effigy. Therefore the message is one of immolation, as opposed to murder. Some people survive horrible burnings for many years, so let’s not go overboard in trying to glean Krugman’s true intentions.
Lying bullshit fills the air
Cowardly boys who talk and lie
Fools don’t do what they say
the chickenshits of the Neocon brigade
Chicken wings upon their chest
these are kids, America’s worst
one hundred fools will talk today but
only three fail the yellow streak
trained to live off Likudist’s bucks
bred to talk like stupid fucks
shits who lie by night and day
cowards take from the Yellow Streak
I’ve just realized Hadassah must be a man, since chickenhawk Joe is the biggest cocksucker in Congress. Which is saying something indeed.
Give Joe a Yemen and he’ll give you Yemenaid. I’m sorry. I apologize. Back to the fallout shelter.
[re=485554]user-of-owls[/re]: If we go after Yemen, how in the world will they find enough people fluent in Pirate to support the mission?!
How hard can it be? “Arrrrr, me hearties, invadin’ yer country is what we’re about. Arrrrr!”
See? I’m re-enlisting. Gettin’ a big bonus. Arrrrrrr…..
Whoa Hey Jesus Criminy and his brother Hihow Arrja run pretty decent smoke shop on the Res.
[re=485540]SmutBoffin[/re]:
Where’s Yemen?
Next door to Syria if you work for Faux News. Sarah can see it from her house.
I want to see GI Joe spend a week as a soldier. My friends kid and his bunkmates slept on the floor while on base in Iraq for fear of being shot. He said there was constant gunfire and that was after the “surge”.
Oh, God… Oh, God… What’s the point? The scrotal faces shall inherit the Earth. So let’s just go off like the crew of the Titanic and kill everything and fuck each other – all that nihilistic stuff they refrained from alluding to in the movie when total apeshit became the rule.
There’s no hope. We’re all too stupid to live. We should let the Chinese use us for various recipes. That’s all we’re good for – dinner.
I hope the snow melt in the NE Corridor results in 50 million people’s worth of ass waste bubbling up through the sewers of Connecticut as a fat thank you to that state for giving us six more completely unnecessary, hideous years of this micro-penis.
I want to jam a Torah up his ass sideways.
Why not? We will be greeted as liberators and the reconstruction will pay for itself.
Maybe we should bomb Nigeria while we’re at it. I’m sick of those emails.
Per the NY Times, Joe’s just telling us old news:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/28/world/middleeast/28yemen.html?ref=world
Joe just has a talent for putting it more succinctly than others.
War “on”, war “with”, war “in”…it makes a difference. You have to watch your prepositions, for such is the language of twenty-first century diplomacy.
[re=485557]Mr Blifil[/re]: So true. It’s simply a matter of allowing our will to triumph. Plus, once we’re done, maybe the trains will finally run on time.
[re=485550]Ducksworthy[/re]: Oh, I meant “lose.” We lose wars for long periods of time, when we have wars.
I’ve seen this syndrome before–the student from the 1960s who finessed the Jungle War with deferrals and babies but who in the safety of middle age becomes a fire-breathing motherfucker when it comes to sending in the troops. Assholes the lot.
Oh god can we please just *not* have Michelle Malkin’s face to look at here? Haven’t we suffered enough this year?
where are the Semen jokes here, anyway???
We Germans and you Americans have a lot in common.
We like senseless and stupid wars almost as much as you, for instance.
[re=485536]Advocatus_Diaboli[/re]: has anyone ever seen the two of them together? Maybe they are the same dickwad in different disguises.
Get your war on, Joe. The GWOT. Global war ON terror, AGAINST muslims, IN whatever damn country we want. Fightin’ tare, defendin’ precious freedoms.
[re=485580]comicbookguy[/re]: The next six months will be critical to the success of our efforts in Yemen.
[re=485557]Mr Blifil[/re]: Yes, a solution… But what kind of solution, I wonder? Something with a conclusion, I should think. A sort of last part of a third act.
Oh, God. Oh, God… Oh, God… There’s no hope, is there?
[re=485589]Way Cool Larry[/re]: We’re gonna be looking at that gook for the next fifty years.
[re=485573]binarian[/re]: Oh my god, I just figured it out! The government has been planning a war on Yemen since 1996, which is when they introduced a super-secret program to train millions of citizens to speak Pirate…WITHOUT US EVEN REALIZING WE WERE LEARNING IT!!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Talk_Like_a_Pirate_Day
“Bomb-Bomb-Bomb, Bomb-Bomb Yemen” – It’s the follow-up smash hit to “Bomb-Bomb-Bomb, Bomb-Bomb Iran.”
[re=485596]Dolmance[/re]: 10 max. There will come a day when even the most bed-sore infested, mouth-breathing, garage-dwelling, Dungeon/Dragons-playing misanthropic fatboys screaming NOOBAMA in all-caps will no longer think of her as even remotely fuckable.
[re=485591]Herman the German[/re]: Well, yes. But to be clear, we have a somewhat better Win-Loss record.
[re=485543]bureaucrap[/re]: I can’t speak for Luxembourg, but if we were to follow the examples of the other two, we’d spend an awful lot of time fornicating with sheep while stoned.
There’s an old saying about something and poking a hornet’s nest with a stick. I think the same logic applies to the Mideast. Poking the Mideast with the escalation stick is about the only campaign promise that Hopey fulfilled in a timely manner.
How about a War on Lieberman? Bomb that motherfucker with clusterdicks (salted only, because of the Geneva Convention).
Also, it would be nice to have a military for something other than protecting us from our disastrous foreign policy mistakes. You know, to protect us from somebody else’s foreign policy mistakes like back in the 40′s.
[re=485583]bureaucrap[/re]: The article also tells why US no be doing the invading thing: “Yemen is running out of oil.”
Free-loving towel-heads, you are safe.
Hey, Joe — Watts was yesterday’s war, Detroit is today’s war, Connecticut is tomorrow’s war. Don’t ask why, just go sign up.
[re=485565]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Damn. There is a tune I hadn’t thought of for about 30 years, now will be hauting my brain for the rest of the day.
Well done.
In defense of Joe, he’s incapable of not being wrong.
[re=485597]user-of-owls[/re]: Arrrr, we’ve been duped, matey….
Spoiler alert: yemen+cruise+missle already has google hits, Old news Liebnut.
“That’s strange, Hadassah. It usually comes alive when I talk about carpet-bombing large numbers of innocent civilians. Oh well, back to the snuff films, then.”
Smoke em out of their caves — fight em there so we don’t hafta fight em here — smoking gun in the shape of a mushroom cloud holding a syringe on a flight into Detroit. Suck. On. That. Legal. Grounding.
[re=485605]Guppy06[/re]: I fail to see a problem with that.
[re=485614]Paul Tardy[/re]: There’s that poking it with a stick thing again.
C’mon, this is evolving into ridiculous self-parody. Really this guy is more contrived than a “heel” from the Vince McMahon’s WWF; coincidentally, also from Connecticut.
[re=485587]Jim Newell[/re]: Draft + war tax would equal no Yemen war.
[re=485554]user-of-owls[/re]: Also non-pregnant.
[re=485595]Dolmance[/re]: Enuf with the Pollyanna-talk already–you’re embarrassing us.
PS Did everybody fuck everybody else as the Titanic went down? (There’s a Joan Collins joke in there, but who remembers Joan Collins?)
Based on recent photographic evidence, Michelle Malkin is waging a war against sanity.
[re=485543]bureaucrap[/re]: Errrr… yeah, New Zealand has a paratroop regiment in Afghanistan, for no other reason but to keep the US American government happy and buying our dairy products and possibly even renewing _Flight of the Conchords_.
[re=485605]Guppy06[/re]: and that would be different for us…in what way?
Visa vis Yemen:
Pros: Brown Muslins
Cons: No oil and there isn’t a structure in the country that costs as much as one five thousand pound bomb.
Analysis: Oooooh, this is normally so easy…brown Muslim = Kill, Kill, Kill but damn if the Yemenis aren’t broker than we are.
Fuck, let’s split the difference and invade Detroit. More Yemenis and the reconstruction funds could be dual purposed as stimulus.
Can we please please please make a preemptive strike on Joe Lieberbutt?
[re=485631]mumblyjoe[/re]: I think Lindsey Graham preemptively strikes Lieber’s butt EVERY DAY.
[re=485620]thesheriffisnear[/re]: “coincidentally, also from Connecticut.” I suppose everyone up there feels safe, now that they have a prison-hardened Martha Stewart.
[re=485625]chaste everywhere[/re]: I just assumed they did, because I would have. Makes sense, doesn’t it?
[re=485556]bureaucrap[/re]: Saudi Arabia also has more oil than Iraq. Your science is defeated.
[re=485578]Dolmance[/re]: Fucking optomist.
Oh ! How causal he is about about War and destruction for someone whose genitals are so very very small. It’s kinda jarring.
How about we just bomb Israel into the Stone (Biblical) Age? Every other nation would figure we were so insane they’d never mess with us again. (This was actually part of Nixon’s plan in ‘Nam. If they thought he would use nukes it would frighten off Russia & China.)
Without Israel we wouldn’t have to veto any Security Council votes against them or stay in the Mideast, the Islamists would cool down, and Joe Lieberman would commit suicide. And Kristol, Krauthammer and the rest would be speechless.
Tough, but fair.
[re=485573]binarian[/re]: I think he meant Pirate-speakers who aren’t gay.
[re=485543]bureaucrap[/re]:
You forgot the War on Christmas.
Understandable, though. That was last week.
“FIRM LEGAL GROUNDING”
When did Jim become a Muslin?
Legal grounding for war is not an American value.
It does look like Hadassah perpetrated the War on Semen long ago..or maybe it was Yemen
And just think– if McCain had won, this man would be secretary of state now. Or secretary of defense. Probably both I guess.
[re=485718]9/11 is a verb[/re]: Could be either, as the two are inextricably linked within her mind, allegedly.
A war on Yemen: A Government Option that Joe Lieberman can support.
[re=485672]Dolmance[/re]: It makes sense that they would have, though not because you &/or I would have, ’cause very few people ever seem to have done what I would have done. (??)
You LIE-Bruls complain about guns all the time.
But do know how hard it would be to assassinate Joe with a roll of paper towels or whatever?
Just askin’.
[re=485838]Neilist[/re]: You know who else advocated using guns to kill Jews?
[re=485857]Snarkalicious[/re]: Everyone?
[That was one of those trick questions, right?]
Anyway, is Lieberman . . . “Jewish”? How can you tell?
Yemen! …. Gen’l Joe wants to invade f*cking Yemen? Is this some crazy-assed stunt to have a war in every place the British had real problems with? Is Joe working for the other side or what?
Why stop at the middle east? Al-shish kabab, or whatever that Muslim African terrorist group is called, has used the Somalian diaspora to recruit suiciders from Berundi and parts of Kenya. Congo’s bound to be next. Why aren’t we waging pre-emptive war on the country of Africa?
(Bush and Palin in one short comment. You’re welcome)
[re=485860]Neilist[/re]: Oh, snap?
[re=485556]bureaucrap[/re]: The UK invasion is a brilliant idea. It will be so much easier to get translators, for one thing. (Unlessl they use cockney rhyming slang during the siege). And think of how our puny art museums will suddenly blossom with the great masters.
The portrait of Maggie Thatcher in the National Portrait Gallery? They can keep that.
This just in!
Joo Liebercunt is a distended, groaningly full skinsack full of festering rat puss which is leaking out his anus and ears.
Just sayin’
Stupid Joe. If he knew international affairs at all, he’d know that the Sana’a government can’t control the parts of Yemen with them al Kayda types. So attacking Yemen, would, you know, not do anything.
[re=485533]blinky_twinkie[/re]: I would pledge myself to King Krug’s service had I not already sworn fealty to Felicia Day, beautiful and wise beyond measure, whose only command is that I stay 500 feet away from her at all times (public conveyances not exempted), 1000 feet at special events and no screaming or throwing of underwear or severed bodily organs (mine or others). Can’t serve two masters or mistresses.
The Yemeni government is, last I checked, one of our allies. And Saudi Arabia is one of its allies. And … what the fuck is this dumb fuck thinking? God, he is the carbuncle of the ass of the Jewish people.
